Review of The Children of Huang Shi (2008) by Fay E — 06 Mar 2009

[font=Times New Roman][color=black][color=black][color=black]The movie;"Children of Huang Shi" is an excellent depiction of what occurred in China during[/color] 1937, when the Japanese armed forces entered China.

While the Japanese systematically raped and brutally killed over 200,000 Chinese in one of human histories worst atrocities this movie does show how a group of young scared orphans due to the war band together.

A British Journalist, George A. Hogg who at first was reluctant to assist the orphans does become their leader, mentor, and teacher.

This band of children under the guidance of the westerner George Hogg, travel 700 miles by foot manage together throughout all of natures? barriers; the harsh yet majestic diverse landscape that China can offer without being caught by the merciless Japanese soldiers to arrive at a safe place where the children can live out their lives in peace.

During their months together, you develop a sense of who these children are and what some of the atrocities their young lives had to face.

You watch how this cocky young British journalist develops and matures rapidly into a fine upstanding responsible individual that is respected and truly honoured by all.

The beauty of China?s vivid and diversified breathtaking landscape is beautifully captured in the background with all of its majesty on film;.

?Children of Huang Shi? adds some much-needed hope for humanity; a journey of life; s[font='Times New Roman','serif']acrifice; life; death; [/font]a love story for the restoration of hope for all during such a horrific time in history.
